Dear Jose,
I used to write that I have been doing genealogy research for many years, then over twenty years, then over thirty years, now I say that my research encompasses over forty years. When I first started out, I did not have Internet or familysearch as a resource. The main resources were books and records that were on paper. As the years have gone by, The ability to access these records has become easier, first because of microfiche, then cd's, then the Internet, then the various stages of familysearch. The latest version of familysearch is supposed to be the best but I was able to access certain documents on earlier versions of familysearch that I cannot access now. But overall, the ability to research through such a powerful resource tool like familysearch makes the old fashioned work of checking out books and records seem like too much work.
Although I too make extensive use of familysearch, much of my research continues to be of the old fashioned kind. I read a lot

My response:
Your request brought up many questions. Are you looking for general information on how to use the many resources available to study genealogy? If you are, there are many books out there that can help guide you. The answer to what to do if you have "used all of what family search has" is not a short answer.
If you are looking for specific information about your ancestors, you need to provide more information and identify what clues you may have.
The full names Juan Martin Torres and Anna Xacinta de Los Santos is information that you should have provided if you were
